Day 107: Today's song is Yaad Aa Raha Hai by Bappi Lahiri - Disco Dancer (1982)

It is day 107, and today's song is Yaad Aa Raha Hai sung by Bappi Lahiri from the 1982 blockbuster super hit movie Disco Dancer, directed and produced by Babbar Subhash. Music composed by Bappi Lahiri, and lyrics written by Anjaan (is/was Anjaan really one person or a few "not known" people, I wonder)

The movie and it's songs had impact on the local cultures for at least 6 years straight after it's release. It is said the movie was 4 years old and was still playing one show in one movie theatre in few cities. I think that is quite a feat, to have the movie run for 4 years straight. For the first couple years, I am sure the movie ran in multiple theaters in many cities.

This movie also opened avenues for Bappi Da to explore and adapt western pop, disco and rock music.

I remember belting out this song as a kid, In fact we had a tape of all the songs from this movie and I knew all of them by heart. In my 4th grade school, I remember singing on stage in a school event, a not so well know song from this movie, Krishna Dharti Pe Aaja. I still love that song.

Here is my rendition of the song Yaad Aa Raha Hai:

Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com

Lyrics:

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Kahan hum kahan tum

Hue tum kahan gum

Aabhi ja abhi ja ek baar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Kahan hum kahan tum

Hue tum kahan gum

Aabhi ja abhi ja ek baar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Yaroon

Mein to yahan jeeta raha

Saare gum dil ke bhoolake

Deke tumhe saari kushi

Maine 

Maine yahan

Kuch bhi to paya nahi

Sab kuch paake

Mujhko mile kya zindagi

Ho hhoohohooo

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Kahan hum kahan tum

Hue tum kahan gum

Aabhi ja abhi ja ek baar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Aye dil 

Mein wohi tu wohi

Wohi hai ye duniya ke mele

Bichde woh din jane kahan

Roothe 

Sab yahan jane kahan

Reh gaye hum to akele

Awaaz de kisko yahan

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Kahan hum kahan tum

Hue tum kahan gum

Aabhi ja abhi ja ek baar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Wada 

Wada raha sathi mere

Tere liye gata chala jao

Tu mera dil tu meri jaan

Jeena 

Jeena mere jeena

Yehi tere liye zindagi lootau

Tu jo nahi kya hai yahan

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar

Kahan hum kahan tum

Hue tum kahan gum

Aabhi ja abhi ja ek baar

Yaad aa raha hai tera pyaar.

Day 76: Today's song is Bambai Se Aaya Mera Dost by Bappi Lahiri - Aap Ki Khatir (1977)

It is day 76 and today's song is Bambai Se Aaya Mera Dost sung by Bappi Lahiri from the 1977 movie Aap Ki Khatir, directed by Sudhendu Roy and produced by Harsh Kohli. Music composed by Bappi Lahiri and lyrics written by Shaily Shailendra.

This song was a hit when it was released, and also happens to be Bappi da's second big hit after Chalte Chalte, a 1976 hit, which catapulted his career into gold, and lots of gold, if you know what I mean. It's a fun song.

The movie, I have not seen, and I cannot seem to find a copy anywhere to watch. Hmmm....

Anyways, here it is, my rendition of the song:

Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com

Lyrics:

meethi hai mosambi to kadva hai karela

maashuk tere andar tu tu tu bahar khadela

ja ja jawani kabse kabse kabse bula rahi hai

buddhi ke chakkar me tu kayeko kayeko kayeko padela

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

raat ko khao piyo, din ko aram karo

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

raat ko khao piyo, din ko aram karo

vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah

sab milake naacho gaao, chhutti hai mauj manaao

sab milake naacho gaao, chhutti hai mauj manaao

are are sab milake naacho gaao, chhutti hai mauj manao

sab milake naacho gaao, chhutti hai mauj manaao

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

raat ko khao piyo, din ko aram karo

vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah

jai raja maharaja, ab sab tujha maajha

jai raja maharaja, ab sab tujha maajha

are are milake bajao baaja, halva khaao taaja

milake bajao baaja, halva khaao taaja

sabhi amir bano, garibi dur karo

raat ko khaao piyo, din ko aaram karo

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

raat ko khao piyo, din ko aram karo

vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah vaah

ab na koi ho kadka, na koi paise vaala

ab na koi ho kadka, na koi paise vaala

are are naachege sab milake, jija ho ya saala

naachege sab milake, jija ho ya saala

chhodo kaale dhandhe, safed kaam karo

raat ko khaao piyo, din ko aaram karo

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

raat ko khao piyo, din ko aram karo

bambai se aaya mera dost, dost ko salam karo

This song was a hit when it was released. I remember we used to have a tape of the songs from this movie. Disco era song.

Chords: ?

Lyrics:

Dekha hai maine tumhe phir se palatke

Ha tumme hai baat koi auro se hatke

Aaj tumse mulakat ho gayi

Dil me jo thi wohi baat ho gayi

Kisi se dil laga liya

Dekha hai maine tumhe phir se palatke

Ha tumme hai baat koi auro se hatke

Hota yahi sabhi ka sapna

Mile koi jo ban jaye apna

Hota yahi sabhi ka sapna

Mile koi jo ban jaye apna

Kahne ko to dunia hai apni

Tum jo nahi ho to kuch bhi nahi

Najar me tum sama gaye

Dekha hai maine tumhe phir se palatke

Ha tumme hai baat koi auro se hatke

Na jane hai wo kaun sa nasha

Binapiye mai to bahakne laga

Na jane hai wo kaun sa nasha

Binapiye mai to bahakne laga

Ho gayi bhul mujhe maaf karna

Hath lag jaye to bhi chup rahna

Mai hosh me nahi raha

Dekha hai maine tumhe phir se palatke

Ha tumme hai baat koi oro se hatke

Aaj tumse mulakat ho gayi

Dil me jo thi wohi baat ho gayi

Kisi se dil laga liya

Day 70 of 300: Today's song is Mausam Hai Gaane Ka by Bappi Lahiri - Surakksha (1979)

It is day 70 of 300, and today's song is Mausam Hai Gaane Ka sung by Bappi Lahiri from the 1979 movie Surakksha, directed by Raveekant Nagaich and produced by B. Subaash. Music composed by Bappi Lahiri and lyrics written by Faruk Kaiser.

This cheapy spy movie was a super hit when released, and this song was a super hit too. I remember as a little boy I saw one of my seniors in school dance to this song on stage. The whole school was grooving to the song.

This is probably one of the first songs that Bappi Lahiri started using western disco, pop and rock music influences, and went on to copy a lot of western pop songs and made a successful career.

Anyways, here it is, my rendition of the song:

Chords: ?

Lyrics:

Mausam hai gaane ka

Gaane ka bajane ka

Sun ne ka suna ne ka

Hasne ka hasane ka

Raato ko jagane ka

Naino mein samane ka

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Gun master gun master

I love you your mine

Gun master G nine

Gun master G nine

Aankhon mein hasti hai

Chaahat wo masti hai

Socho to mehangi hai

Lelo to sasti hai

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Gun master gun master

I love you your mine

Gun master G nine

Gun master G nine

Apana hai ye nara

Har chehra hai pyara

Jo dil me wo muh pe

Hum to hai awara

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Gun master gun master

I love you your mine

Gun master G nine

Gun master G nine

Har rasta manzil hai

Har toofan saahil hai

Har dhun hai ek nagma

Har nagma ek dil hai

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka

Yeh jeevan yeh duniya

Sapna hai deewane ka.
